• 1/4 cup coconut oil
• 1/4 to 1/3 cup maple syrup

Directions

• Preheat your oven to 325F and Line a baking sheet with parchment paper
• In a blender or food processor combine your nuts/almonds. Pulse about 5-8 times until nuts are chopped but not ground.
• Transfer to a large bowl and add in your pumpkin seeds, mix together.
• In another bowl, combine your coconut oil, extract, and maple syrup. Pour this over the nuts and mix. Then add in your spices and mix again till evenly coated.
• Spread nut mixture evenly onto the baking sheet and sprinkle a little sea salt on top. Maybe 1/4 tsp or so.
• Place in oven and bake for 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven and toss the nuts/seeds on the tray so they flip sides. Place back in oven and bake again for another 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven one last time, toss nuts/seeds, then add in your coconut. You can add the coconut to the nut/syrup baking tray or on a separate baking tray. Just make sure its spread evenly onto the tray.
• Bake for another 5-8 minutes or until coconut is toasted.
• Remove and let cool.
• Once cooled, place coconut/nut granola in a bowl and mix it up a little more. Add in your dried berries and toss all together.
• Add any additional spices youd like to finish.
• Store in a seal tight container or in gift jars.
